McGregor & Bukele Double Down on Bitcoin: El Salvador’s Crypto Reserve Strategy Takes Center Stage
El Salvador makes headlines again as President Nayib Bukele and UFC star Conor McGregor huddle over Bitcoin reserves—because nothing says ’financial sovereignty’ like a volatile asset propped up by celebrity endorsements.
The Bitcoin Playbook:
Fresh off its historic adoption as legal tender, El Salvador’s aggressive BTC accumulation strategy gets a Hollywood twist with McGregor’s involvement. The fighter-turned-entrepreneur reportedly pitched leveraging his global brand to ’hypercharge’ the country’s crypto reserves.
Wall Street Rolls Its Eyes:
While crypto Twitter erupts in hype, traditional finance scoffs at the spectacle—another reminder that in the age of meme economics, national treasuries now compete with influencer pump-and-dump schemes.
- Conor McGregor will meet President Nayib Bukele in El Salvador to discuss the adoption of Bitcoin.
- The meeting will take place during the Bitcoin Nation State Summit this month.
- McGregor is advocating for Ireland to establish a national Bitcoin Reserve.
Conor McGregor will meet El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele during the Bitcoin Nation State Summit to discuss a potential Irish Bitcoin Reserve. The meeting signals McGregor’s ongoing campaign for a Bitcoin Reserve in Ireland.
Bitcoin Reserve Gains Spotlight Ahead of Ireland’s Elections
Through his ambitious political pursuits, Conor McGregor aims to rally support for creating a national bitcoin reserve in Ireland. He claims that a well-thought-out reserve will increase Ireland’s financial independence and provide more investment opportunities. The initiative reflects a global trend among rising economies to create their own digital asset reserves.
Ireland’s political and financial demagogues have shown great interest in the drive to a Bitcoin Reserve. According to McGregor, the Bitcoin Reserve WOULD act as a long-term asset for the country. His proposal is based on the backfiring strategy that El Salvador is developing.
Yes‼️
The nation state Saylor play can be rolled out in Ireland. 🇮🇪
This would be TOPIC No. 1 at the Bitcoin Nation State Summit

Conor McGregor’s offer to meet President Bukele strongly supports his plan. The summit revolves around adoption models and policy approaches. Essential points on the agenda include how the daily acquisition of Bitcoin could be introduced and the potential for implementing this model in Ireland.
Conor McGregor Eyes Strategic Support from Bukele’s El Salvador
McGregor’s interest in the El Salvador model comes largely from its visionary implementation of an ambitious Bitcoin Reserve program. El Salvador continues to purchase one Bitcoin daily, regardless of international financial pressure. President Bukele has maintained the program under pressure from international bodies.
McGregor plans to test the effectiveness and design of the Bitcoin Reserve in El Salvador and identify how Ireland might emulate such a reserve framework. This analysis will consider how Bitcoin is acquired, the handling of digital wallets, and mechanisms of transparency.
Bilateral cooperation in the digital asset field will be another theme at the summit. Issues such as educating the public on Bitcoin, policy harmonisation, and securing the reserve will be featured on the agenda. McGregor aims to build a strong reserve system that indicates a good supply.
Broader Digital Asset Plans in Discussion Beyond Bitcoin Reserve
McGregor has started researching digital assets strategies beyond the Bitcoin Reserve. He is reviewing the addition of different cryptocurrencies for a future Digital Asset Stockpile. The scheme aims to upgrade national portfolios and promote the application of blockchain technology.
McGregor’s recent comments emphasize his appeal to governments to embrace open and nonpartisan systems. These systems represent blockchain ideals and are part of a larger goal to increase transparency with crypto assets. He is interested in innovation but makes sure Bitcoin forms his base for the reserve.
Also, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has reached out to McGregor so that they can meet. As of yet, there have been no reports about that issue. Still, McGregor still pushes the creation of a strong Bitcoin Reserve as a foundation for security.
